Herbs of every color also come in different quality grades. The better the quality of the herbs the better the resulting potion. Herbs with low quality grades can be harvested from plants which grow in masses in easily accessible areas while plants which drop high quality herbs are rare and can only be found in remote and dangerous areas.

Alchemy is a crafting discipline which converst herbs into potions.

Herbs

Herbs exist in different colors:

Herb-red.png red (common)
Red herbs have healing powers and thus are the base for all potions which recover hit points.
Herb-yellow.pngyellow (common)
While having no powers on their own yellow herbs can be used to potentiate the powers of other herbs but also make them work over a longer period of time.
Herb-blue.pngblue (uncommon)
Blue herbs suck up mana energy while growing. Potions brewed from them cause a sudden boost to spell recharge.
Herb-green.pnggreen (uncommon)
Green herbs have healing and purifying properties. They are the base for potions which remove or protect fro status effects.
Herb-black.pngblack (rare)
Black herbs are cursed with demonic energy. They can be used to create very powerful potions but every potion brewed with them also has a negative side effect.
Herb-purple.pngpurple (rare)
Purple herbs cause very weird effects. They are usually for entertainment purpose. Their practical use is usually low.

Herbs of every color also come in different quality grades. The better the quality of the herbs the better the resulting potion. Herbs with low quality grades can be harvested from plants which grow in masses in easily accessible areas while plants which drop high quality herbs are rare and can only be found in remote and dangerous areas.

Quality grades from lowest to highest:

  • Herb-dried.pngdried
  • Herb-withered.pngwithered
  • Herb-fresh.pngfresh
  • Herb-living.pngliving
  • Herb-magic.pngmagic

Formulas

All these potions also exist in different quality grades which are determinded by the quality of the used herbs. The higher the sum of the quality of the herbs and the rarer the herbs the harder are they to craft.

In addition to the herbs listed here each potion also requires an empty potion bottle (small bottle for one-herb potions, medium bottle for two-herb potions and large bottle for three-herb potions). In contrary to most other MMORPGs the empty bottles can be reused after drinking the potion (yes, we recycle).
